Story
Merrick is truly something special! At just over a year old, Merrick is a 45-pound Australian Cattle Dog with a heart as big as his potential. This handsome boy is smart, affectionate, and ready to find a forever home that will embrace him—just as he is. Due to old leg injuries, Merrick can’t live an active lifestyle, but that doesn’t dull his shine. He’ll need a caring foster or adopter who can help manage his mobility with gentle at-home treatments like red light and massage therapy, along with pain medication on days he needs extra support. But don’t let that fool you—his spirit is as bright and loving as ever. Merrick may not run marathons, but he will run straight into your heart. He's a total gentleman—calm, friendly, and soaking up the love from everyone he met. He’s crate trained, has a medium energy level, and enjoys peaceful companionship over chaos. He gets along great with small dogs and, although he hasn’t been cat-tested yet, his sweet and gentle nature suggests he could do well with the right introduction. Merrick is loyal, intelligent, and deeply people-focused—a true best friend in the making. All he needs is someone to see past his physical limitations and recognize the perfect companion waiting beneath. He may need a little extra care, but in return, you’ll get a lot of love. Looking for a loyal, laid-back lovebug to share your life with? Merrick is ready to meet you. Fully vetted, neutered, vaccinated, and house-trained Professionally trained in basics (sit, stay, walking on leash, etc) – includes 1 FREE trainer session at trainer's location for adopters Foster-to-adopt option available – all costs during fostering are covered by us - food, medical, etc ##2248587##

Hey there! I see you landed on my profile. My name is Girlie and my foster mom says that I’m small but mighty. Do you like to cuddle? I absolutely love cuddle-snuggles at night! Playing with other dogs and having adventures in the great outdoors are two of my favorite pastimes. I am crate and play-pen trained. My potty training is also coming along well. Girlie has been spayed, given age appropriate vaccines, dewormed, microchipped, is heartworm negative, and on prevention.

Since we are located in Mobile, AL, this will give you the opportunity to see the pet interact with other dogs, people, and see a bit of their personality.

Story
Meet Bluey! Doesn’t he look like the perfect companion to tell all of your secrets to? He has that half-knowing smile that says “I know something but I’m not gonna tell you what it is.” He is an absolute sweetheart that could use some confidence-building. Loud noises cause him to be a bit skittish. His favorite past time is playing fetch with tennis balls outside. He is crate and play-pen trained. Bluey’s potty training is also coming along well. Bluey has been neutered, given age appropriate vaccines, dewormed, microchipped, is heartworm negative, and on prevention.

Story
Robin came to us as an abandoned puppy, and sadly, he’s had to grow up in the shelter. Now an adult, he’s still hoping to find the forever home he’s always dreamed of. Robin is an active, intelligent dog with a lot of energy. He’s food motivated, which makes him a great candidate for training and learning new tricks. With a dedicated owner who enjoys providing both mental and physical challenges, Robin will truly thrive. While Robin is friendly with the staff and volunteers, he can be a bit cautious with new people, as the shelter has been his only safe haven. He may not be a fan of big social settings, but once he trusts you, he’s a loving cuddle bug. Robin would do best in an adult-only home where he can be the only pet and receive all the attention he deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal companion to bond with, Robin might be the perfect fit for you!

Story
Hi, I’m Winton! I am a loving, smart, funny, and playful guy. I am also very cute! I love meeting new people and am friendly with everyone I meet. I am very affectionate and will snuggle up on the couch next to my foster parents or even in their laps. My foster parents say that I am quite smart and can be a bit mischievous at times. I know sit, down, and I am working on come. I also like to play fetch – I am pretty good at retrieving things - and I love to run around the yard. Mostly, though, I just love to hang out with my foster parents, and I pretty much am always in whatever room they are in. At night I sleep curled up on the bed next to them. I currently live with a lab mix foster sister and a Doberman mix foster sister. I really adore my foster sisters, and I look to them for guidance. I enjoy playing with them, especially the Dobe mix, and I’m good at holding my own even though I’m half her size. I would do great in a home with a doggie sibling who can show me the ropes and who likes to play as much as I do. At times I like to steal whatever toy or bone my foster sisters have, so a doggie sibling will need to be ok with my little brother antics. I am still a bit puppyish and sometimes forget that hands are not chew toys when I get excited. Because of this, I will do best in a home with children over 10 years old. I also need for my forever home to have a fully fenced in yard. I am a good boy, and I am house broken. I am also crate trained, and it’s where I spend my time when my foster parents are away from home. Sometimes the world can seem like a scary place to me, and I experience a bit of anxiety. My foster parents have been working on my confidence, and I’m learning how to go for walks and do fun things without being scared. My new family will need to be understanding of this and help me learn how to be the best version of myself. I would really benefit from a training class where positive reinforcement and enrichment training methods are used. Winton is available to adopt in the Chicagoland area and is being fostered in a home. Appointments to visit him will be set up for approved adopters only. Adoption fee is $200 which includes all appropriate vaccines, and he is already neutered and microchipped.
